Well my mood meter went into overstoked when I heard that ALBINO was going to be playing the BOboilnk Music Fest.
Ive been going to this small festival for the past 2 years. It takes place up hwy 70 on the way to Quincy from Oroville/Chico, in a small old Train station town, turned resort, turned into shabby run down resort. The run down look to the town is actually very pleasant, its absolutely GORGEOUS with that backwoods kind of feel.
Its like a little town with a street, a bar and grill, and lots of old cabins. Its RIGHT off the highway across the Feather River. The YEllow River forks into the Feather right where town is. The main stage area is on a nice lush lawn under trees right on the river. The bar and grill has an indoor stage for all day and evening mayhem, and has on occaision at this festival lifted off into other dimensions only to be placed back in fine old tyme shape.
The best thing about Bobo after the music is the camping. I dont think ive found camping quite like it anywhere....and Ive camped all over the US. Some of the camping is right on the river on sandy pits under oak trees. IN the backdrop is a snowcapped Peak (bald Eagle Mtn) and the traintracks. (yes, they will rock your world...ever seen Dancer in the Dark?)
There is also a campfire pit by the bar and main outdoor stage, right on the river, which made those crazy early mornings even more surreal and warm.
This festival has so many interesting wierd amentities, if people knew what they were in for, tickets would sell at a blink of an eye. But its still a slight secret!
The sprit of Bobolink Fest is centered around a playful blend of Rock, funk, jam, electronic, and bluegrass and many other undescribable sounds. This takes the one sidedness of a rave and brings it into new dimensions (plus, I dont think your SO COOL unless youve experienced a bluegrass flavored rave....hahahaa)
On the menu this year are artists like Ooah, Izabella, Meltone from japan, Nevada City's Organic Flood, and possibly some Michael Travis/janover projects such as EOTO or Sporque. There are namy artists that will still be announced.
I think ALBINO is scheduled to play (tentatively) an 8-11 pm spot which is awesome. youc an go to www.boblinkmusicfestival.org for some iformation. Also, check the BOBOLINK MUSIC FEST TRIBE to check out tons of photos from previous fests.
Albino is goin gto fit the vibe of his fest so nicely, and Im very excited for them to join the fun with all the Sierra Kooks. Art, fire, and freakiness is always encouraged!!
